Unpacking My Library: Architects and Their Books
Author(s): Jo Steffens
What does a library say about the mind of its owner? How do books map the intellectual interests, curiosities, tastes, and personalities of their readers? What does the collecting of books have in common with the practice of architecture? This title provides an intimate look at the personal libraries of fourteen of the world's leading architects.
